Warhammer 40,000

Sustained Suppression

Chapter: Dark Angels
Action: Free Action
Cost: 2
Sustained: Yes
Effects: Dark Angels are masters of holding their ground and
have a keen understanding of the tactics of overlapping fields
of fire and kill zones. While this ability is in effect, the Battle-
Brother and those in Support Range of him may take actions
normally while maintaining Overwatch (see page 241), such
as moving and making attacks.
Improvement: If the Battle-Brother is Rank 4 or more, the
test to avoid Pinning when caught in a kill zone created by
him or those supporting him increases from Hard (–20) to
Very Hard (–30).

The attacks made
while using this ability may include single shot and semi-auto fire, but
not full-auto bursts.
